Our history Baking has been a long passion of the Baillardran family Philippe was introduced to the family bakery at an early age, alongside his father Raymond, his mother Pierrette, his brother Jean-Pierre and his sister Marie-Christine. But his aspirations were quite different: to develop the store around a single product. He then set out to conquer the Americas and its language, of which he did not speak a word. He started out in a French restaurant, before being offered a golden opportunity in a New York restaurant. He continued his apprenticeship in Cleveland and then delighted the inhabitants of Mantucket Island with his bread rolls. Formerly a family's bakery, now the headquarters of Maison Baillardran Having been used as a kitchen for making homemade cakes, the cellar is now a storage area. The second floor now houses the administrative offices, including those of the management. Angèle Baillardran occupies the former living room while Philippe officiates from the room that served as his bedroom, as a teenager, together with his loving brother and sister.A family with a tender heart
